Internship Opportunities
In order to complete our research, we are always interested in looking for interns and graduate students. An important element of working in our lab is an independent research project. Our goal is to provide each intern or graduate student with a project that matches their career path and provides them something to show future employers. Projects range from bioinformatics to engineering. Please reach out to Brady with a copy of your resume or CV. We look forward to hearing from you!
